Inquiries regarding certification of development standards.

As you know, there are development standards in each industry, such as ISO26262 or DO-178B/C.
Companies often need certification that they have developed in compliance with these standards, and they want to use tools certified by certain organizations rather than directly authenticating them. Because it can save time and money.

In particular, such inquiries are increasing these days in the automobile and aviation industries.

As far as I know, there is no standard verification tool or anything like that yet using PSIM to get certified for the criteria.
Altair has a wide variety of tools, and getting certified for these standards will also help promote the product, so I wonder if you have any plans to get certified with psim for standards such as ISO26262 or DO-178B/C in the future.

    Hi Yong Jun Lee,

    You raise some good points. Currently the product PSIM is not certified or provide certification kit for ISO26262 and DO178B/C . We are investigating this and update when we have a plan. 

    The source code generated by PSIM today for the targets supported is already made available as a CCS project and nothing stops today to run standards based code checkers on this code. One could consider starting there and if there are additional requirements we are happy to help support and provide artifacts as necessary . As far as traceability to requirements which is required too there are ways to achieve the same. 

    It would be helpful to understand if you have specific questions which we can address while we have a official qualification kit for general consumption.
